What does "quality over quantity" really mean? Simply put, the more focused effort you put into a single hour of training, the more you'll gain—compared to thinking, “I should squeeze in another WOD today to get fitter.” This mindset can risk overtraining which can lead to fatigue, decreased performance and even injury.
It’s completely normal to feel unmotivated some days. If you're feeling worn down from previous workouts, it's okay to take a rest day when your body needs it. Don’t stress about “losing fitness” just because you chose to sleep in and skip the 5:30am class that one time. Recovery is just as essential as training.
Consistent, high-quality effort over time matters far more than stacking up extra workouts. Giving 75% or more of your energy in one solid session will always beat doing multiple WODs with half-hearted intensity.
When you're hitting high-intensity workouts a few times a week, your muscle fibers are breaking down—that’s part of the process. But the real growth happens afterward. To repair and come back stronger, your body needs recovery. That’s where the gains are made. Recovery isn’t a break from progress—it is progress.
Common examples of recovery include:
Train hard. Recover harder.
